Link is looking back at the year in “Heroes’ Corner” with a countdown of the 10 most-viewed articles.
Coming in at No. 10 is “Brave Graves,” the story of Camille Graves.
The rural carrier was delivering a package to a customer in Brookfield, MA, when she heard a cry for help from inside the home.
Graves entered the residence and found an older woman lying on a cold floor. The customer had fallen the night before and was unable to get up.
The Postal Service employee called 911 and stayed with the woman until an ambulance arrived.
If you know of heroic colleagues like Graves, the Postal Service wants to know about them, too.
Employees recognized through the Postmaster General Heroes’ Program must be nominated for the award. Corporate Communications reviews nominations for accuracy, then sends them to the Postal Inspection Service and the Office of Inspector General for approval.
Following approval, each nominee receives a commendation letter from Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.
Honorees are also featured in Link’s “Heroes’ Corner” column.
To nominate an employee, complete PS Form 400, Corporate Communications PMG Hero Nomination, and email it to PMG_HeroNominations@usps.gov.
